Baxter is a 1989 French film directed by Jérôme Boivin.
The title character is a bull terrier who tells his own story in voice-over narration. Baxter is arguably a black comedy because of the matter-of-fact way in which the dog discusses his aggressive behavior towards human beings, even including mauling and killing human characters. The main thrust of the story is Baxter's search for a human master who will understand him and whom he can respect and obey. Baxter does this even as he confesses that he doesn't understand why he is compelled to seek out a human master, as he doesn't particularly like human beings.
Baxter was the featured film of episode four of the here! original series John Waters Presents Movies That Will Corrupt You.
